The Grand Turk Cruise Center is a world-class, beach front cruise facility nestled among nearly 14 acres of landscaped grounds. The cruise center’s location and the island’s geography offer vessels a safe approach and berthing year-round. The walk from the berthed ships to the cruise center is approximately 390 ft.

At the cruise center guests can swim in the sparkling ocean waters or in one of the largest swimming pools in the Caribbean, stroll along the idyllic beach, relax in a complimentary chaise lounge on the beach or around the pool or rent a private poolside cabana for the day.

Clam shell shade for the beach chairs, floats, and snorkeling equipment are available for rent at the Beach Rental Hut centrally located on the beach.

High quality, thick foam floats are only $5 per day.

Snorkelers can explore several sunken Reef Balls that tend to attract fish, and a few 18th century cannons and anchors that are in submerged in front of the Beach Rental Hut at the cruise center.

For guests in need of a little island pampering, a beach side massage service offered by Spa Anani is sure to melt away any tension one may have.

The cruise center is also home to the Caribbean’s largest Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville bar, restaurant, and retail shop.

Those guests who prefer a quieter area will enjoy South Beach. The beach is located on the right as you walk down the cruise ship pier towards the cruise center.

The Turkuoise Beach Bar is now open (July 2010) at South Beach. It is located adjacent to Diamonds International and offers a variety of refreshing beverages.
